Poetry Inn

Napa Valley


There’s no better valley view than from this contemporary five-room inn, high on the hills east of Yountville. Decorated with posh restraint, rooms have private balcony, wood-burning fireplace, 1000-thread-count linen and enormous bath with indoor-outdoor shower. It's about 3 miles to town, so bring your cruiser bikes.
